Thank you, some changes might be coming but I promised myself I won’t change anything until the seasons over lol

Thank you. Always get the 10.5 and turn it down so the face sits more open, just love that look.

[fastswinger]

Is that driver w/ speeder a fairway finder?  I imagine that driving iron produces some low bullets!!!  Looks good!

It has been working for me really well so far. And yes I can hit some mad stingers with it lol, can also get it up in the air if I need to.

[Yringa]

Very nice bag.

2/27 update:

long end of the bag testing, got 2 3 irons that are competing for the 3i spot. Both in the same spec, 20°, 39.5 inches, 59.5 lie. 
turned the PXG into a 3i as it was a 2i, made it shorter and weakened it. 
The P770 has a dynamic gold x100 120 and the 0311 X has the same Tensei white 90x. 

Can’t get outside until midweek probably as it’s pretty wet outside. So hopefully I can get some proper outside testing soon. 
Not changing anything till spring season ends is going great lol. 
Also made a shaft change in the 730s, changed to the dynamic gold x100 tour issue, absolutely loving it so far!

will be keeping this updated through the season. Happy lookin!

Nice setup, hope the season went well.

7/19/22 update:

This is the bag for the time being, likely until new woods come out because that extra 2 yards is sooo beneficial. I ordered another 0311 X built at 16° and 40 5/8” and same Tensei White 90X, should gap well with the current one at 20° and 39 1/2”. Will swap the 16° with the 5w depending on the course I’m playing, more for up north than here in Florida. Most is the same just switched a couple things, full specs will be below pics. 
Have a great day everyone! -Toast

The front pictures have been updated so the current bag is there. 
Changes made:

• 10.5° driver head to 9°. Spin was a touch high for my liking so traded to a lower loft
• Shaft and weight change in the driving iron. The Tensei white was feeling too light and was hitting it wide so went heavier to make me swing it like a regular iron.
• SIM2 Ti 5w to PXG 0211 7w. 0211 woods were cheap so I went for it. Goes pretty much the same distance just higher which is exactly what I want out of my second fairway wood. Might change it might not. 
• Back to the MG3 46°. Always used a specialty wedge so don’t know why I really changed lol 
• New 54 and 60. Higher bounce with both. If Rory does it so can I 😁
• Back to spider X. Just suits my eye better. 

Unfortunately I have a hip injury so I can’t play much golf. Hoping I’m ready to go by conference time. 
Changes I want to make next: 

Irons: I think I’m not getting blades anymore, have used blades for a long time but the more competitive golf I play the more I might want a little help when I’m off. Considering PXG 0311T, Taylormade P7MC, and even the PXG 0317 blade which I know is a blade but people say it’s more forgiving than a traditional blade. Will most likely go to a PXG location and hit some stuff when I’m more able. 
Next change is driver and 5/7w. Will be looking at stealth2 and that’s probably it if I’m being honest lol. 

Have a good one everyone!

Hey everyone! 

I received my preorder yesterday. I am absolutely in love with this 5w, I've struggled to find a 5w I really like but I think this is it. 

 

I have a Hzrdus Yellow 83g 6.5 for the 5w that I have to build up at some point, should be good!

 

Front pictuers are updated, enjoy!

Any luck on posting some pics of that 5 would at address? I’m debating grabbing one and lofting it down with weight forward 

[ago33]

How do you like the 46-54-60 setup? Part of me wants to try it so I have some extra room at the top end. I have an 8 degree stealth coming and could use an extra club at the top end.

I can get those to you tommorrow. Funny enough I tried that setup and it seemed solid. Something I would consider using it when I have 2i in.

I really like it. I haven't missed my gap wedge, I just never really used it. Gave me the option to keep 3i and 5w in the bag at the same time which I like. Doubt I'm going back to a 4 wedge setup.

Sweet setup man! TM hit it out of out the park with the aesthetics of the Stealth 2 lineup, look forward to hearing how they work out for you!

Thanks Nate! I was honestly a little disappointed with Stealth, but Stealth2 is much improved imo, much better on looks alone. 
 

I’ll update when I get them both outside, been hitting in the sim and I like both. I am in love with this 5w so far, have been searching for a 5w I’m in love with and I hope this is it. 

[dwinch]

Such a good looking WITB. What do you have in the 5w OOI?

Yeah, the OG Stealth line just didn’t work for me either for whatever reason.

Had 9* and 10.5* Plus Driver heads, a 9* standard Stealth, and multiple different shafts, but just couldn’t get them dialed in. Also had a Plus 3W that I didn’t like nearly as much as the SIM2 Ti that it replaced.

 

Definitely open to testing the Stealth 2 line though for sure.

I would recommend it. I think it was the shape of the stealth that put me off, Stealth2 is much more my style, more like SIM2 lol. 

[BagofToast]

So... little trouble in paradise here. I’ve been playing the stealth2+ and felt like I wasn’t launching it ideally. So I threw my sim2 max (9* @8.25* for reference) in with my spare shaft and hit shots off each tee for 9 holes (slow day). I hit some long shots with the sim2, so the stealth is officially out... for the moment. I love how the stealth2 looks and sounds, I want it in the bag. I have a proper fitting later today and I’ll get my results. I suspect I’ll go into a higher loft plus or move to the standard head. I will find out!

[BagofToast]

Fitting and tournament completed. Got fitted into a S2+ 10.5 head turned down one notch on the upright side. Same shaft I’m using now. Launch was much better than the 8*. Swinging driver/ woods pretty good at the moment but I have basically no confidence in my irons, not sure what happened since it seemed fine last week but I’m sure I can figure it out. 
 

For the tournament it was a 36 day one 18 day two. SIM2 was in the bag. First 18 was stroke play and the last two 18s were match play singles. Shot 75 in the morning, the rest of my game was fantastic other than irons, shame as I feel I really could’ve shot under par. Lost my first match 3&2, opponent played well and didn’t make the mistakes I did. Won the day two match 5&3, irons were just better, felt like I played more as I should.
